Rare "1964½" 260 V8, Auto, Rotisserie Restored, Red/White, Show-Quality Classic

Introducing a Timeless Classic with this 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible

Step back in time and experience the iconic styling, powerful V-8 performance, and the sheer joy of top-down motoring with this stunning 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible. As one of the earliest examples of the legendary pony car, this Mustang showcases the features that made it an instant sensation and cemented its place in automotive history.

Finished in a crisp white exterior, complemented by a vibrant red interior and a matching red convertible boot cover, this Mustang is a head-turner from every angle. Under the hood, you'll find the early production 260 cubic inch small-block V-8, a powerplant that was only available during the first few months of the 1965 model year, making this a true "1964½" Mustang.

This convertible is equipped with a host of early production components, including a generator charging system, low-mounted horns in the engine compartment, and a "Generator" warning light in the instrument cluster. These unique features set it apart from later 1965 models and make it a true treasure for Mustang enthusiasts and collectors alike.

The Mustang's "Made to be made by you" marketing is evident in its array of desirable options, such as the smooth-shifting automatic transmission, styled steel wheels wrapped in narrow white sidewall tires, a floor console, an AM radio for entertainment, and the eye-catching GT-style dual trumpet exhaust tips.

Attention to detail is evident throughout this convertible, particularly under the hood, where the engine compartment showcases the 1965-exclusive black with gold paint, an authentic Autolite battery, and a period-correct Rotunda oil filter. These elements combine to create a truly authentic and immersive experience for the lucky owner.

Assembled at Ford's West Coast facility near San Jose, California, in early 1964, this Mustang boasts all the classic pony car styling cues that have made it an enduring icon. From the forward-thrusting front grille with its chrome running horse emblem and bars to the faux side scoop sculpturing and the distinctive tri-bar taillights, every detail is a testament to the Mustang's timeless design.

Inside, the red bucket-seat interior and cockpit-style instrument panel transport you back to the 1960s, immersing you in the era of the original pony car. The 1965 Mustang set historical sales records for an American car, with more than 680,000 units delivered during its extended 17-month production run, which included the early "1964½" models like this convertible.
